Christina Hendricks brings more good news for Curvy girls.
As regular readers of Fashion-Mommy know, I just adore Christina Hendricks. To me, she is just the most beautiful women on TV, with a curvy hourglass figure to die for. But Christina doesn’t always get it right in the fashion stakes. On Mad Men, Janie Bryant styles her character Joan as a regular bombshell, in curve enhancing suits and dresses, but in real life, the thoroughly modern Christina struggles to dress for Hollywood occasions due to designers just not catering for her sort of figure. Recently, Christina was photographed on a beach in a black one-piece swimsuit, which sent the press and blogosphere into heated debates about her body –…

Amber Riley became a major star in Glee and also began to feature on best dressed lists, whilst Crystal Renn, the most famous plus sized model, became one of the faces (if not the body) of Chanel. It seemed…

The Met Ball – Frocky Horrors.
The Met ball was a night of High Fashion, but for every beautiful dress, there was a frocky horror story happening. Bad clothes did happen to good people on the evening. Here are the stars who really should’ve looked in a mirror before they left the house that evening! Rihanna. She wore a long lace Stella McCartney dress that raised that tiresome question – is she or isn’t she wearing any knickers. The quick answer is – who cares? Everyone has been adopting this look lately, even Kate Winslet, and it’s getting rather boring. And as for the Rapunzel red plait…get a haircut Rihanna. Rosie Huntington Whiteley, officially the sexiest…

Golden Globes – Best, Worst And Trends!
Last night Fashion-Mommy stayed up until 2pm live blogging on the Fashion parade that was the 2011 Golden Globe awards. There were some amazing, and not so amazing looks on show on the Red Carpet. Now the dust has settled, I am going to update you on all the trends, the looks I adored and the ones that I could well do without. Everyone’s gone GREEN! No , unfortunately I’m not talking about all the stars becoming ecologically sound, I’m talking about what was definitely the colour of the night. Bottle green was a big story on the new carpet, and most of those who chose this colour wore it…
